Thanks Mark.
Can you confirm if i am using WakeLock in the correct way please.
//My Service
public void onCreate() {
...
mPm = (PowerManager) getSystemService
(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
mWl = mPm.newWakeLock(PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, "MGS");
mWl.acquire();
...
}
public void onDestroy() {
...
mWl.release();
...
}
The intention is to keep the CPU going so my service can log when a
location change happens, works as i want while the phone is fully
awake, though even with the above WakeLock it stops logging the
changes.
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks,
Liam
